The Town with Acacia Trees
This is another good read from the Romanian author Mihail Sebastian, but "The Town with Acacia Trees" has one failure. It is the only thing that didn't make it live up to "The Accident", which I loved!
The Accident
If you want a great read this weekend, definitely try "The Accident" by Mihail Sebastian. I was enraptured by the writing and still dreaming about the main characters.
Letters to a Young Gymnast
If you're interested in Nadia Comeneci's biography, "Letters to a Young Gymnast" is what you need. This book is written by Nadia and references all the major public events in her life. She even addresses the rumours around the incident with her drinking bleach and her relationship with Nicu Ceausescu, the son of Romania's dictator!
